The Celestron Universal T-Adapter connects a DSLR or SLR camera body to a telescope with a 1.25" focuser or eyepiece adapter installed. The T-threads on the top of the Universal T-Adapter screw into a T-Ring (sold separately) that is designed to attach to the brand-specific mounting flange of your camera. The barrel end of the T-Adapter slides into the focuser, just like an eyepiece, and locks into place with the focuser or eyepiece adapter thumbscrew.
